When Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Wu saw this, they hurriedly followed with their children in their arms. Wang Yuning even lifted up the hem of her skirt, forgetting what a lady's code of conduct was.

Han felt that something was wrong, so she took the opportunity to pull her two children along to follow.

Whoosh, all the people in the big house disappeared in an instant.

Looking at the half-empty house, Mrs. Wang finally realized what was happening. She cursed loudly, "You unfilial son! Go and bring them back to me!"

"Eh."

Liu agreed and was about to go out and call her husband. But before she left the room, she heard her father-in-law's voice from the back room, "Don't chase after her."

"Old man."

"You're so confused. The eldest brother wants to take the three children to the princess's mansion, and you want to find someone to stop him? Do you think your life is too long?"

"But…"

"Old woman, you know you are biased."

"Old man."

"We didn't say anything about it before. Now Xingze's mother is the eldest princess of the royal family, and you're still using your little tricks to scheme against her. Aren't you afraid that Xingze's mother will get angry and chop off your head?"

"Can't you?"

"Third daughter-in-law, please put away those inappropriate thoughts of yours."

Liu: …

"Xingze's biological mother is the princess of Daqian. You still want to compete with her? I want to ask you how many heads you have that are worth chopping off."

"I…"

"Calm down! Stop jumping around and instigating your mother-in-law to cause trouble."

"I don't…."

"Do you believe this yourself? Ask the people in the room if they believe it?"

Liu lowered her head and dared not utter another word.

Her daughter rolled her eyes at her. It was so embarrassing.

...

Outside the Wang family's gate, Wang Jian didn't expect Han to run out as well. "Sulan?"

"My dear husband, you are all out now. I am afraid that the old lady will scold me."

"Dad, before Dad came back, Grandma scolded Mom."

"Father, when the time comes, let mother go home with you!" Wang Xingze's words were still very pertinent. He was already twelve years old when his mother asked to leave the family, and he remembered everything.

After their mother left, their two aunts and even their grandmother disliked the three siblings and secretly called them the remnants of the Ye family.

They couldn't talk back yet; if they did, their grandmother and Third Aunt would beat them severely. He was still easy to talk to; he would rebel when he grew up. But his brothers and sisters were still young, especially his younger sister. He sometimes couldn't take care of her, and she suffered a lot of bullying.

Later, my sister's life became better after my stepmother Han came into the family.

The stepmother was not very good to them, but compared with the second aunt and the third aunt, she was much better.

His stepmother would not bully them. When his third aunt and cousins ​​bullied his younger sister, he would help her and not allow them to bully her. He was very satisfied with this.

...

When Wang Jian saw that his eldest son asked him to take Han with him, he asked his servant to go to the street and rent another carriage.

To be honest, the entire Wang family only has two carriages.

On the way to the princess's mansion, Wang Xingze told them about how his grandmother had sent Han back to her parents' home. "Father, I think it was Third Aunt who instigated this again."

"My son thinks it's her fault. She feels uncomfortable if she doesn't find something to do for our eldest wife every day." Sometimes, Wang Haoyu really hopes that his third uncle can beat up his third aunt so that he can vent his anger.

“…It’s just uncomfortable.” Little Radish Head agreed with his second brother’s words.

"Do you know what it means to feel uncomfortable?" Wang Jian said with a smile, touching his youngest son's hair.

"Dad, I know."

Seeing his father teasing his younger brother, Wang Xingze suppressed his doubts and did not ask.

Wang Haoyu's temper was completely different from his brother's. He couldn't hold back when something was on his mind. "Father, is it my mother who came to talk to you?"

"It's not your mother. We are worlds apart now. How could she see me?"

"Who is coming?" Wang Xingze also became curious.

"It was your uncle, His Royal Highness Prince Rui, who personally invited me and Lord Liu to the teahouse to tell him."

"My uncle?"

"Your Highness Prince Rui is very brave and powerful." Wang Jian still admired the sons of the Ye family. "To be precise, your uncles and cousins ​​are all talented generals."

"Oh."

"When you live in the princess's mansion, you will be closer to them and can learn from them in the future."

"Father, is it okay?" Wang Haoyu doesn't like studying. When he was a child, he was bullied by his aunt and cousin, so he wanted to learn some boxing and kicking to fight back.

But his grandfather and father did not allow him to learn martial arts, so he climbed over the wall and secretly watched the guards at home practicing boxing and wielding swords. Gradually, he learned a few moves from them.

You know what, even with his mediocre skills, he is quite effective in beating his two cousins.

At least they didn't dare to bully him later, and they couldn't even team up with him because he beat them up and made them behave themselves.

When Wang Xingze heard his father mention his uncle Prince Rui, his expression became serious.

Wang Jian saw his eldest son's expression and sighed inwardly. "Xingze, you will be much more comfortable living with your mother than in the Wang family."

"Father, I know."

"It's father who has let you three down."

"Father, we never blamed you."

"No matter what, father owes you."

"Father, we just don't want the other members of the Wang family to take advantage of my mother. I will never forget how they cursed my mother, scolded us, and beat us behind her back."

Wang Jian had never expected that the most serious words his second son had said to him since he grew up would be these.

He rubbed his face with his hands before firmly telling his two eldest sons, "From now on, they will never dare to bully you again. The difference between them and you is as great as heaven and earth."

At this time, Wang Xingze and Wang Haoyu did not understand the true supremacy of imperial power.

Wang Jian looked at his two grown sons, one gentle and elegant, the other handsome and tall. "You both have bright futures ahead of you. There's no need to let people like the Wang family dampen your spirits."

"Father~"

Hearing the word "future", the two brothers were moved.

Wang Xingze is 22 years old this year. He passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, but he has not made any progress since then.

Wang Xingze actually had some doubts in his heart, wondering if it was because he was the grandson of the Ye family that he failed the exam again and again.

He was not the only one who had this suspicion; Wang Jian had also had doubts. As a father, he was very confident in his son's knowledge.

But because his eldest son failed the imperial examination twice in a row, he did not allow him to take the imperial examination again.

He used his connections to get his eldest son a ninth-rank official under his command.

Thinking of these things, Wang Jian felt sorry for his eldest son.

"Your uncle said today that your royal grandfather will most likely confer a title on you."

Wang Xingze: …

Wang Haoyu: …

Seeing that both sons were staring at him without saying anything, Wang Jian briefly explained to them the matter of succession to the title of nobility. "Noble families usually pass the title to the eldest son."
